Step Three: Rinse Your Seeds Regularly
After soaking, drain and rinse your seeds a few times before placing your jar and Sprout Hugger upside down on the reservoir.

Step Five: Return to the Reservoir

When your sprouts are ready, rinse them thoroughly in a bowl of water and skim off any unsprouted seeds. Lay sprouts out to dry (tea towel works best) and then store in the fridge when dry.
